The seventh son of a seventh son, Frank Whelan eagerly awaits the healing gift passed on to him by his father, also the seventh son of a seventh son, to reveal itself in full force. The Whelan dynasty is still famous for this gift today, not only in Carlow and its environs, but also in neighboring Irish counties. However, in a big family history there are a lot of mysteries, and Frank, in order to figure out his own calling and some personal confusion, will first have to look for the keys to family secrets - in wonderful places, in strange ways and with the help of old and new friends. Kathleen Murry turned out to be the same Ireland, still imbued with the old magic and populated by eccentrics and sages, which is so loved all over the world, to which countless fans of everything Irish strive to get. The living, spontaneous voices of the Irish outback, the roads in the hills and over the sea, the extremely thin border between the living and the dead, the speaking and singing world of seemingly inconspicuous little things - “The Encore God” immerses us in all this from the very first pages. Kathleen Murry, masterfully leading all the solo parts in this extraordinarily musical novel, invites you to experience a rollicking adventure in which the enchanted byways and byways of Ireland lead both heroes and readers deep into time - and into their own depths.
